    This is what happens when you want to run with the Rockets but your whole team voted for Michael Dukkakis.

    Notice how nobody is giving the Rockets credit defensively...... and also how they've shown they can win in many different ways.......

    Rockets have played some really good defense so far this post season

    I knew the Spurs weakness was on the interior and great job exploiting that tonight.

    This is what happens when you want to run with the Rockets but your whole team winds down by watching Wheel of Fortune.

    Our guys have seen war. Like Ryno literally saw the worst he could possibly be. At that point, the only way to go was up.

    This is what happens when you want to run with the Rockets but the only film you've been watching is old episodes of Murder She Wrote.

    I really think the OKC series got us battle tested and ready for this series.
    Bev went from guarding WestBrick to Tony Parker. LOL
    SA bigs are soft compared to OKC. Let's keep it up

    This win or the win versus Lakers back in 08-09?


    The win against lakers was inspiring. Yao's tunnel moment.

    I also mentioned that their interior defense doesn't scare me.

    Rockets made the Spurs look like those washed up guys competing in the BIG3.

    Spurs should send their players to that draft

    LamarcASS will likely go undrafted

    Popovich's summary of the game was...

    Spurs took quick shots, missed them, then got bludgeoned on fastbreaks.

    The difference tonight was Harden coming out and going lights out. The rest of the team fed off his energy and offensive creativity. I personally believe the MVP race affected Harden in the last series and he was never off to a good start in any game. Now, that Westbrook has gone fishing, Harden feels vindicated and thus very relaxed and singularly focused on winning.

    This is what happens when you want to run with the Rockets but your whole team once liked Vanilla Ice un-ironically.
